Drying humidity help

I live in Hawaii and am currently drying some herb. My humidity is currently at 62% in my drying area. I tried putting the herb in a box with a fan blowing in and it's still 62%. I'm looking at purchasing a small dehumidifier. I don't harvest very much (less than an ounce every two weeks).

My question are:

1) can I use the small dehumidifier inside of the box (2'x3') or will it suck out moisture too fast?

2) can I use something other than a dehumidifier like those containers used for closets that collect moisture (DampRid)?

Or does anyone have a better alternative?

Thanks in advance!

I guess u good with that temps. Ideal is 65. And thats how u want to keep it even inside the yars. Good luck
 
Hi, at 62 humidity you should be able to dry until it is damp but not wet. You can then put it into jars with a Boveda pack (62% control) . The Boveda pack will keep it at a humidity of 62% up or down. It won't go wet or dry, just right.
